A Mother's Instinct
Years of nothing dulls it down
No hope left of help or care
Children raised to believe it's right
Unending cycle no end in sight
But still a mother cries out loud
And rocks her baby close
The way to keep them safe not clear
The pain of seeing through her fear
You judge the footsteps you've never walked
You hold them to account
You took away their right to be
Mothers
Strong and proud and free!
